Dating back to 1565 CE, Agra Fort is a formidable military structure that was transformed into a palace by Emperor Shah Jahan, who was later, ironically, imprisoned here when his son Aurangzeb seized power. Built out of red sandstone and white marble, the fort is enclosed by an insurmountable 66 foot (20 metre) high, 1.6 mile (2.5km) double wall.

Fatehpur Sikri was built in 1571 CE and was the capital of the Mughal Empire for fourteen years. A fine example of a Mughal walled city, with well-defined public and private areas marked by imposing gateways, its architecture harmonises elements of traditional Hindu and Islamic styles. Fatehpur Sikri can also be visited en route to Jaipur.
